Review: ALAN TURING - A MUSICAL BIOGRAPHY, Riverside Studios
by Cindy Marcolina - January 10, 2024
This self-identified “musical biography” doesn’t dig much further than the introduction paragraph of Turing’s Wikipedia entry.

The songs are unchallenging in both semantics and melody, while the narrative immediately becomes shallow and insubstantial. It’s a flawed, boring attempt at finding the next British theatre hit.
